        揭秘人類“性交易”的進(jìn)化淵源
        Cost of coitus: Male monkeys pay for sex
        [ 2008-01-03 15:28 ]

        Selling sex is said to be humankind's oldest profession but it may have deep evolutionary roots, according to a study.

        Selling sex is said to be humankind's oldest profession but it may have deep evolutionary roots, according to a study into our primate cousins which found that male macaques pay for intercourse by using grooming as a currency.

        Michael Gumert of Nanyang Technological University in Singapore made the discovery in a 20-month investigation into 50 long-tailed macaques in Kalimantan Tengah, Indonesia, New Scientist reports on Saturday.

        On average, females had sex 1.5 times per hour.

        But this rate jumped to 3.5 times per hour immediately after the female had been groomed by a male -- and her partner of choice was likely to be the hunky monkey that did the grooming.

        Market forces also acted on the value of the transaction.

        If there were several females in the area, the cost of buying sex would drop dramatically -- a male could "buy" a female for just eight minutes of nit-picking.

        But if there were no females around, he would have to groom for up to 16 minutes before sex was offered.

        The work supports the theory that biological market forces can explain social behaviour, the British weekly says.

        "There is a mix of economic and mating markets in the human species itself," said Ronald Noe of France's University of Strasbourg.

        "There are many examples of rich old men getting young attractive ladies."

        “性交易”據(jù)說是人類最早的職業(yè),而一項(xiàng)研究表明,這可能具有很深的進(jìn)化淵源。該項(xiàng)對(duì)人類親緣的研究發(fā)現(xiàn),雄性獼猴會(huì)通過給雌性獼猴梳理毛發(fā)的手段來?yè)Q取交配機(jī)會(huì)。這種手段好比人類使用的貨幣。

        據(jù)《新科學(xué)家》周刊上周六報(bào)道,新加坡南洋理工大學(xué)的麥克爾?古莫爾特通過對(duì)印度尼西亞加里曼丹地區(qū)的50只長(zhǎng)尾獼猴進(jìn)行為期20個(gè)月的研究,得出以上結(jié)論。

        研究發(fā)現(xiàn),雌性獼猴的交配頻率為平均每小時(shí)1.5次。

        但在一只雄猴給她梳理完毛發(fā)后,這一頻率會(huì)立刻提高至每小時(shí)3.5次。此外,雌猴很可能會(huì)選擇為她梳理毛發(fā)的那只雄猴作為自己的“性伴侶”。

        此外,市場(chǎng)力量也會(huì)影響交易價(jià)格。

        如果某一區(qū)域內(nèi)有幾只雌猴,那么“性交易”的價(jià)格會(huì)大大下跌,一只雄猴只需為一只雌猴抓虱八分鐘就能“換取”交配機(jī)會(huì)。

        但在周圍沒有雌猴的情況下,他得付出16分鐘的努力。

        英國(guó)《新科學(xué)家》周刊稱,該研究為“生物市場(chǎng)力量可以解釋社會(huì)行為”的理論提供了支持。

        法國(guó)斯特拉斯堡大學(xué)的羅納爾德?諾伊說:“人類物種自身存在著一種經(jīng)濟(jì)市場(chǎng)與交配市場(chǎng)的結(jié)合。”

        “當(dāng)今社會(huì)不乏有錢的老男人與年輕貌美的女人結(jié)合的實(shí)例。”
